Guisui, Japanese Army Headquarters in Mongolia.

Kuroda Shigenori and the main force of the 26th Division were annihilated by Koto without a word. Major General Katagiri Shigeru of the 4th Cavalry Brigade only had time to send a telegram requesting tactical guidance at the last moment.

Before Okabe Naosaburo could recover from the shock of the two troops being annihilated, Guyang and Baotou were surrounded again.

The development of the war between the two places was also faster than Naosaburo Okabe's imagination. In less than half a day, the headquarters lost contact with the two important towns in Suixi.

All this was developing so fast that not only Naosaburo Okabe, but also all the officers and soldiers stationed in the Mongolian army had not yet reacted.

On the afternoon of the 8th, the news that Baotou and Guyang had been captured by the Chinese was finally confirmed.

Naosaburo Okabe spent more than an hour reviewing the entire battle in the headquarters. He found that although he had been extra cautious and cautious, he still underestimated Jiangdong's power.

After seeing the entire battle clearly, a doubt popped up in Naosaburo Okabe's mind:

"Where is Lieutenant General Mizukawa Io, commander of the Suixi Garrison, alive or dead?"

He never thought that Mizukawa Ifo, a member of the royal family, would surrender to the Chinese.

After thinking about this problem, Naosaburo Okabe hurriedly gave an order to the chief of staff, asking the latter to find Io Mizukawa no matter what.

Before receiving any news from Io Mizukawa, Naosaburo Okabe was waiting for something even more worrying.

The 35th Army took the initiative to attack eastward, and the guerrillas attacked from all sides. The strongholds on the railway line requested tactical guidance one after another, and the phone number in the Communications Department was almost full.

However, Naosaburo Okabe did not have any extra troops at all, so he had no choice but to send a report to Datong and request Shun Tada to send more reinforcements.

After losing three important towns and more than 10,000 elite troops, no matter what the outcome of Operation A, Naosaburo Okabe will definitely be held accountable after the war, and he will no longer be able to stay in the position of commander of the troops stationed in Mongolia.

Naosaburo Okabe never thought about whether there would still be problems with the establishment of the Mongolian Army after the war!

…

Shortly after arriving in Datong, Tada Shun received a reprimanding telegram from the base camp.

The old Japanese didn't fully understand the feelings of his predecessor until this moment. It's just that Shun Tada is used to being proud and arrogant. He will not find the reason from himself. He will only shift the responsibility for the defeat to the frontline commanders, such as Naosaburo Okabe.

On the body.

In order to relieve the resentment and depression in his heart, Tada Shun sent three telegrams to Guisui within an hour, all of which were hysterical words of accountability!

He deprived Naosaburo Okabe of his command over the remaining troops stationed in Mongolia, and firmly held the military command of the entire Suiyuan and Shanxi battlefields in his hands.

On the evening of the 8th, a brigade of the 27th Division set off from Guisui and advanced westward along the railway line.

The mission of the advance brigade is to drive away Chinese guerrillas who are attacking strongholds along the railway.

The tragic experience of the troops stationed in Mongolia was before our eyes. The advance brigade did not dare to move away from the railway line, and the guerrillas in various places did not suffer any substantial blow.

At 8 o'clock in the evening on December 8, about five miles west of Dorzi.

Yao Yidao led all the cavalry of the Daqingshan guerrillas to kill the Japanese and puppet troops patrolling the railway, and all the military stations and strongholds on the 10-kilometer-long railway line were uprooted.

The Daqingshan guerrilla detachment has rich experience in railway raids. They conduct such battles three to five times a year. In the past, the guerrilla detachment was weak and often chased away like rabbits by the little devils.

But this time it was different. After breaking through multiple strongholds, there were still no Japanese reinforcements around. The Daqingshan guerrilla detachment became more and more courageous as they fought. They mobilized the common people to work together to build railroads and rush to transport supplies, and the work was in full swing.

Yao Yida was riding on a war horse, his scarred face twitched from time to time, his eyes were deep.

Tonight's battle was extremely smooth and the harvest was very rich. Yao Yidao gradually believed what Ye Qingshan said about Jiang Dongguang's battle plan to restore Guyang and Baotou.

"Commander, the railway tracks have been removed and all supplies have been transported. Should we continue the attack?"

The third regiment commander rode his horse and came to the side of Yao's sword.

Yao Yidao heard the implication of the third regiment commander's words, which was to continue eastward to fight against Dorqi.

Because except for Dorzi, there are no other valuable targets on this railway line.

The total number of the Daqingshan guerrilla detachment is less than a thousand, and there is a Japanese squadron stationed in Dorqi, so it is difficult to gain advantage by taking the initiative.

It's time to give it up as soon as it's done.

Just when Yao was about to give the order to retreat, a fast horse suddenly ran over from the east. The knight on the horse was in high spirits.

"Commander, Japanese reinforcements are found ahead!"

Yao Yidao's heart skipped a beat. Before he could ask the question, the third regiment commander next to him spoke impatiently,

"How many people are here? How far away are they? What equipment is there? Can we fight?"

The soldier exhaled a few breaths and answered quickly:

"More than 100 little devils, one armored vehicle!"

"No more?"

"No more!"

The third regiment leader's face showed excitement,

"Commander, we can't let go of the more than 100 guns delivered to our door!

The armored vehicles can be dealt with the old way, and this team of little devils will never come back!"

Yao Yida also wanted to expand his victory. After confirming the number of enemy troops in detail, he issued an order very decisively:

"The third battalion organizes the people to retreat. The first and second battalions will come with me to deal with these little devils!"

"yes!"

…

The Japanese captain stationed at Dorchi was unwilling to let the soldiers leave their bunkers and go to support those fallen strongholds in the dark.

However, Naosaburo Okabe was deprived of his command power, and Shun Tada directly commanded the troops stationed in Mongolia in various places. "The new officer took office with three things in mind."

Shun Tada relied on the railway to deliver troops and supplies, and he could not remain indifferent while watching the guerrillas eat up the railway section by section.

Railway troops in various places received orders from the top commander of the North China Front, and they had to walk out of their strong bunkers and into the dangerous darkness.

The lights of the Type 91 road-rail dual-purpose armored vehicle are as dazzling as a beacon in the dark, and can be seen clearly from a distance.

In order to prevent the infantry covering the rear from getting lost, the armored vehicles moved very slowly.

There is no light in the world on both sides of the road, and white snow spreads in the light.

The eyes of the Japanese soldiers in the armored vehicles were sore, and pale white ghosts would appear from time to time.

Finally, a dozen cavalrymen in gray military uniforms appeared on the railway line ahead. They hid in the distance and opened fire on the armored vehicles. The bullets hit the steel plate of the armored vehicles, making a clanging sound.

More than a hundred Japanese soldiers suddenly became energetic, and the machine gunner in the armored car pulled the crooked trigger without hesitation.

Under continuous machine gun fire, the ragged guerrillas fled in panic.

The Japanese sergeant who led the team never took the guerrillas seriously. When his head became hot, he ordered the armored vehicles to increase their speed and chased the cavalry desperately.

The armored vehicle was moving at full speed, and the infantry's two short legs simply couldn't catch up.

As the lights gradually faded away, the Japanese second lieutenant who was commanding the infantry jumped to his feet and cursed.

"Bang bang bang..."

The armored vehicle traveling at high speed did not pay attention to the changes in the rails under the wheels. Only a clang sound was heard, and the armored vehicle suddenly fell down, unable to move.

Falling into the trap of the Chinese, the Japanese military officer was horrified, but it was too late. The armored vehicle was trapped in a deep pit on the railway.

At the same time, gunshots like exploding beans rang out around the Japanese infantry, and clouds of blood mist exploded from the bodies of the Japanese soldiers, and they fell one after another.

"Fight back! Fight back!"

The second lieutenant was extremely frightened in his heart, but he could not show it on the surface. He waved his command knife in a noisy manner.

"Wow!"

The hood of the armored vehicle was suddenly covered by something, and the light was dimmed.

The sergeant tilted his head and looked out of the shooting hole, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper.

"Twigs?"

"Crash..."

While the sergeant and several soldiers were panicking and wondering, the sound of horses stampeding could be heard again, and then something was poured on the armored vehicle.

The Japanese soldiers subconsciously stretched out their hands to touch the seams of the armored vehicle. They felt a wet touch on their hands. They put their fingers to the tip of their noses and sniffed.

"rosin?"

They have not yet understood the profound meaning of this series of operations by the guerrillas.

"Little devil, grandpa will take you back to your hometown!"

"boom!"

A torch flew over the armored vehicle, and then the entire pit burst into flames.

"Ahhhh..."

Several Japanese soldiers in the armored vehicle let out inhuman screams.

The air was gradually filled with the smell of rosin and barbecue, making it look like a horse sneezing.

The Daqingshan Guerrilla Detachment cannot afford high-end gadgets like Molotov cocktails, so what they use most is spirits and pine oil.
